About the
Healthy Arizona Worksites Program

The Healthy Arizona Worksites Program is a public health initiative that has been developed through a partnership between the Arizona Department of Health Services and the Maricopa County Department of Public Health.

The purpose of the Healthy Arizona Worksites Program (HAWP) is to help Arizona employers successfully implement evidence-based worksite wellness initiatives to improve the health of their employees and businesses. Evidence-based worksite wellness initiatives have been shown to reduce costs associated with healthcare and absenteeism. In addition, they have been linked to increased productivity as healthy employees have been shown to be more productive.

The Healthy Arizona Worksites Program (HAWP) is a statewide program that provides Arizona employers with training, technical assistance, tools, and resources to design, implement, and evaluate worksite wellness initiatives. HAWP also works to create linkages between Arizona businesses engaging in healthy worksite efforts so they can learn from each other and share experiences.

HAWP offers a 101 training seminar that focuses on helping employers plan, implement and evaluate worksite wellness programs that are evidence-based. HAWP also offers a 202 series of trainings and webinars that include topics such as:

Mobilizing Peer Support for Wellness
